my novice analysis is that AS saw a huge market opening with DL dismantling its DFW hub. there will no longer be SEA-DFW nonstops operated by DL, and so AS is looking to pick up some of that market. DFW is a huge market, and i am sure AA doesn't mind at all because pax on AS flights continuing beyond DFW will be codesharing onto AA flights. now the big question is where the AS gate will be at DFW. connecting at DFW is horrendous, even when going from an AA to AA flight. i cant imagine what will happen with an AS to AA flight.
